13-year-old boy frazzled by tanning salon

A 13-year-old boy is recovering after sustaining severe burn blisters to his face after visiting a tanning salon 3 times in a day.

Obviously unhappy at his somewhat pasty looking skin, Kieron Saunders decided 21 minutes under a high-powered 'standing' tanning booth should give him that desired bronzed look. Unfortunately it didn't, as his mum explains: "His lips swelled up and he looked like Baloo the bear from the Jungle Book."

He couldn't lift his head up and he couldn't swallow. The doctor said it was because he had been badly burned.

Good to see the doctor diagnosed him accurately though...

  • It's his mother's fault for letting him, a CHILD, attend a tanning salon.

    In my opinion, there's nothing remotely beneficial from tanning. If you want sun, stand in the sun...it's free.

  • well, not everything about wildly premature skin damage is bad... if he tried to buy beer from me I probably wouldn't even card him
  • Serves him right, damn natural selection for not finishing the job. 13 year old moron got what he deserved thinking he needs to be fake baking iunstead of just being a kid.
  • All because he wanted to look a little better, the sad thing is the burning may result in permeant scarring.
